one of the most obvious ways is times square which was one of the rotting core of the city filled with peepshows, porn, crime, and the homeless. he condemned, revitalized times square. but now it's clean and brings millions into the city. less visible to tourists but just as important is the $5 billion he spent on creating affordable housing which helped change the bronx. at funeral today, bill clinton spoke which is fitting because it's hard to find two politicians more nakedly in l ld of being loved. where clinton is a smooth operator who approaches america as if it were a lovely lady he would like to pick up, koch was brash and opinion yat yated. he is like chris christie who tell it is like it is. in the doc koch says you can only get the people to follow you by being bigger than life, and he refers to politics as theater which makes sense because he was good at that. he was good at all sorts of theater. >> i'm going to tell you who you're doing, you're doing terrible. that's why i'm going to jump off this roof. >> it's all right. it's all right. it's me, mayor koch. >> jump, jump!
